HELP!!! My girl isn’t well…

[Eastaries49]

my daughters chicken isn’t doing very good. She is eating and drinking, but her vent…it looks like it’s contracting and her belly is really soft like it’s got water in it and before anyone says water belly we looked into that, but she doesn’t have the symptoms and vent gleet…she don’t have those symptoms neither.
What else could it be? PLEASE, Help…. my daughter doesn’t want to lose another one of her girls.

How old is the bird and what exactly have you been feeding it?
When was the last time she laid an egg?

What makes you positive that she doesn't have the water belly issue?

How long ago did the last bird die and do you know the exact reason for its death?

Bc she has absolutely non of the symptoms of “water belly” except for the feel of a soft, watery belly…. she isn’t panting and doesn’t have gurgling sounds coming from her mouth and she doesn’t have the blue/purple around her mouth, comb and wattles and these are two of the big signs of water belly to

Having a water belly does it necessarily mean that she has to have purple around her mouth or gurgling sounds.
It literally means that she has fluid building up in her belly area.
